James Talarico is a former public school teacher and current seminary student
who has built a following among Democrats in Texas and beyond
for his sermons and floor exchanges challenging Christian nationalism.
Talarico will be an underdog heading into the general election.
The race will be a reach, even if he ends up facing Republican Attorney General Paxton
—who has been elected in a cloud of scandal three times before.
It will also be absurdly expensi…

Just in case anyone was hoping GrapheneOS would support face unlock, even as an option disabled by default, even for the Google Pixel devices with busted-by-design fingerprint sensors: lol keep fuckin' dreaming, noob. Much like Linux in 2026, GrapheneOS isn't about choice. It's about you quietly falling in line and adjusting your expectations, you ungrateful fuckhead leach deserving of mockery and derision and the questioning of your virility and political alignment.

#13 is a lucky number for me as I wore it on my hockey jersey for 20 years of unremarkable performance in industrial and adult leagues and didn't die. And that brings us to #13 on our countdown of #CanadaRivers.
The Ottawa River begins at Lac des Outaouais, north of the Laurentian Mountains of central Quebec, flowing west to Lake Timiskaming. From there its route has been used to define the interprovincial border between Quebec and Ontario. The 1,271 km river has a watershed of 146,300 km2, ultimately draining into the St. Lawrence River. It served as a major trade route for Indigenous people and Ottawa means "to trade" in Algonquin. The river, it's surrounding forests and Indigenous people were all severely impacted by the forestry industry. Lumberjacks brought disease and over-hunted local game, logs jammed the river and dams were constructed to control water levels for moving timber. Today 50 dams, reservoir and hydroelectric, exist on the Ottawa.
